I was shocked by that commercial; I would like $1,000,000,000 paid to me for my discomfort, and I don't even use those phones. Did you also notice their propensity to use mostly Asian people in their presentation? Oh the humanity; I am offended. Maybe only Chinese are victims of the stupidity of being tied to a cell phone; another suit in order? How about one for us REDSKINS? Me registered Cherokee; HOW kemosabe! I'm sure some wouldn't like it, and so more money available in lawsuits?

Ummm......it was filmed in Hong Kong. Lots of Asians there.


Actually, I think it's a pretty effective ad.

That was a pretty cool video. I kinda seen it coming.
I don't text while I drive (much, lol). Sometimes it's business and means money though. Luckily, I'm not texting much lately since my son finally (Finally!!) got his drivers license again.

You see they couldn't do that commercial in America because if you told everyone to leave their phones on they would turn them off.

"It's not nice to fool with muther nature." I thought everybody knew that, Rollo.

I'm doubled shocked that Rebecca did that to my picture.
Do you know what it's like to be double shocked?

I'd turn it off. That's how I roll. I don't like being told what to do and that would make me suspicious. :neutral
